This would be very fitting near the Username/Control Panel/Logout/Armatar box. The suggestion is exactly as the subject suggests. Just give a small red "NEW MESSAGE!" alert when someone messages/comments our profile. I would really appreciate it.

Thanks Zophia, for the picture back-up. That's exactly what I am suggesting.

Oh, sorry about that plokkey. The lack of @... Oh well, no harm.

And yes, getting a visual always helps~
And it looks neat with my username, but what about people with long usernames? Like the line man or firetail?

firetail has his comments disabled. I don't think this applies to him. Also, it would just stretch out to the left. If it goes ABOVE the name, I don't mind. Even if it was just a little envelope. or a single ! character. Just something that shows there's a new comment.

I was just using his name as an example... Even NoNameC68 is a pretty long name...

I guess it could work just fine. Maybe an envelope symbol next to where it says Control Panel. Then clickable and leading straight to the comments or something...

It should bring up a list of users that left comments on your profile.

I don't mind if we have it or not because I check my profile every time I make a comment or forum post.

This wouldn't be a bad idea, just making everything simplier, i never have the E-mail option on, it fills your email , just easier to click at an icon and then there could be a text: ''NEW COMMENTS'' and under it all the new comments you've got and under it ''OLD COMMENTS'' =) Good idea!

OR have a list of icons next to the name where you profile picture. For example have a little "Caution" icon when there's a new comment or some such silliness.
